Adam LaRoche went 3-for-4 with a home run but the White Sox fell to the Twins on Wednesday.

Adam LaRoche went 1-for-4 with a solo home run in Sunday's win over the Astros.

LaRoche's solo homer off of Jake Buchanan in the seventh inning pushed the score to 6-0 White Sox. It would be the last run either team scored in the game. The home run was LaRoche's sixth of the season and gave him 22 RBI. LaRoche has struggled adjusting to his new surroundings, but he's shown signs of breaking out of his early slump and is now hitting .236/.365/.395. We expect those numbers to improve.

Adam LaRoche blasted a two-run homer as the White Sox fell to the Orioles in the second game of Thursday's doubleheader.

He finished the game 1-for-3 plus a walk, with his fifth inning bomb coming off of O's starter Mike Wright. LaRoche also had a big day in the first game of the twinbill, going 3-for-4 with an RBI. He's now slashing .235/.363/.383 with five homers and 20 RBI on the year and seems to be breaking out of his early-season funk.

Adam LaRoche went 3-for-4 with two doubles and an RBI in Thursday afternoon's win over the Orioles.

In a low-scoring game, LaRoche hit an RBI double off Orioles starter Tyler Wilson in the sixth inning, scoring Melky Cabrera and giving the White Sox a 2-0 lead. The team would eventually win 3-2. The two doubles pushed LaRoche's season total of two-baggers to seven and the RBI was his 18th. LaRoche has struggled to this point with his new team, but he's hit 20 or more homers in each of his last four healthy seasons and it's not unreasonable to expect an improvement on his .239/.368/.373 slash as he grows familiar with AL pitchers.

Adam LaRoche drove in three runs with a double and a bases-loaded walk as the White Sox edged the A's 7-6 on Friday.

The White Sox scored five runs in the seventh, all of them unearned after a Brett Lawrie error. LaRoche's double was just his fourth of the year, as he's struggled to meet expectations so far in Chicago. At least he has lifted his average from .207 to .238 over the last week. He'll likely still have a little mixed-league value when all is said and done.

Adam LaRoche hit a solo home run and notched two RBI in Sunday's win over the Twins.

So much for LaRoche's slump. Entering the weekend, he was off to a 1-for-14 start with the White Sox, but he homered on Saturday and did it again on Sunday afternoon, smacking a solo bomb off of Twins starter Phil Hughes in the third inning. He also chipped in an RBI single in the first. LaRoche finished the game 2-for-4 with two runs scored. The veteran first baseman has a track of record of consistency and any little bumps in the road for the veteran are just that.

Adam LaRoche went 1-for-2 with five RBI -- including a grand slam -- in Saturday's win against the Angels.

LaRoche plated the first run for the Pale Hose in the first inning with a sacrifice fly, then victimized Cory Rasmus with a grand slam to right field to push his club's lead to 6-1 at the time. LaRoche hit 26 home runs with 92 RBI in 2014, which both seem like attainable goals in his first season with the White Sox in 2015.

Adam LaRoche, in two at-bats on Wednesday, doubled in a pair of runs and scored a run.

The White Sox are counting on LaRoche to have another productive year at the age of 35. He will have the luxury of not having to play defense as he'll serve as the club's primary DH throughout the year. LaRoche posted an .817 OPS with 26 home runs and 92 RBI last season.

He's just one step away from joining the White Sox bullpen after three mostly-successful rehab outings with High-A Winston-Salem. Jones has been out for all of 2015 and he made just one appearance in 2014. The 29-year-old reliever is now 12 months removed from Tommy John reconstructive elbow surgery.
